PaCCS is proud to host a robust collection of reports and briefing documents which provide concise summaries and sets of recommendations designed for policymakers, practitioners, and those working outside of these areas of academic expertise. Our reports touch upon a range of issues across the areas of conflict, cyber security, and transnational organized crime.
Reports listed as part of the ‘PaCCS Policy Briefings’ series found below have emerged from our policy workshops. The recommendations contained within them are the result of debates by policymakers and practitioners, which have resulted in the identification of specific key challenges which deserve serious attention. Other reports included were produced by researchers within the partnership.
